| ROSEGARDEN 1.7.2 RELEASED 2008-09-03/9-3-2008 |
| |
======Future Changelog for 1.7.2====== | The Rosegarden team is proud to announce the release of version 1.7.2 |
| of Rosegarden, an audio and MIDI sequencer and musical notation editor |
| for Linux. |

| This is a maintenance release that follows close on the heels of 1.7.1. It includes some comparatively small but really interesting new features and usability improvements, which mostly concern lyrics, and a new lead sheet LilyPond export mode that lets you make lead sheets by using LilyPond format chord texts (eg. g:maj7) over top of your lead line. None of these features have been documented yet, unfortunately. |
| |
=====Planned===== | Heikki Junes deserves the lion's share of credit for this release. All the features and most of the bug fixes have his name written all over them. Thanks, Heikki! |
| |
* Probably the most important thing we plan is to keep track of whatever gets done in trunk for 1.7.x so that we make sure to port it to the 2.0/QT4 branch when the time comes. | |

=====Implemented===== | |
| |
| We're also releasing with several translations that are 100% complete, and many that are 80% or more, which is a big improvement over 1.7.1, which released with no translation updates at all. |
